TALK:
Human-Centered innovation communities in the digital realm
Artistic and scientific practice tends to be at the forefront in highlighting and defining what a human-centered approach to developing, working with and implementing digital technologies can and should look like. At the same time, the public sector is also starting to consider human-centered technology and the humane application of digital technologies as central to policy and agenda setting, building communities around driving these topics forward within regional and city development.  Kristina Maurer will share her experiences working with innovation communities in both of these areas, and explore differences and commonalities in their approaches.
